Beautiful thoughtful work from the BERGians.
Dan makes a very good point about Little Printer: it’s not the “printer” part that matters; it’s the “little”.
A lovely piece from Matt examining agency and behaviour in the things we surround ourselves with: frying pans, houseplants, pets, and robots.
These are the droids you are looking for.
This evolution of Tom Taylor’s microprinter looks like it’s going to be absolutely wonderful (and packed full of personality). Watch this space.
A nice project from BERG that aligns numbers from your own world (like the number of people you follow on Twitter) to numbers in the larger world.
This is an excellent use of the Kindle as an undemanding screen. Really lovely!
Those lovely BERG chaps profiled in the New York Times.

Matt is, as usual, eloquent and inspiring.
New from BERG: superimposing historical events onto familiar landscapes.
Matt Jones on sociality, data, radio and time.
In praise of Gutenberg's contribution to typography.

Camille Seaman's stunning pictures of icebergs and clouds make me feel small and insignificant. But in a good way.
The classic Kurt Vonnegut short story Harrison Bergeron has been turned into a film. I hope it doesn't suck.
"£5000 in £10 and £20 notes were individually dropped around the streets of London with a removable sticker." Clever.
